Sunnyside Homes by the Numbers
With electricity the main heating fuel in Sunnyside (about 73% of homes), many tankless units here are electric, and their faults are elements, breakers and sensors rather than burners. With a median build year of 1975, many homes in Sunnyside were set up for a tank heater, which means a tankless unit often depends on a retrofitted gas line, vent run or drain. Sunnyside is about evenly split between owners (around 60%) and renters, so calls come from homeowners and from landlords and property managers alike.
Sunnyside covers about 7.5 square miles and holds roughly 16,329 residents, around 2,163 per square mile: spread out, with mostly detached homes on larger lots and longer runs between fixtures and the street. Among the 209 Washington places we cover, it ranks number 53 by population.
